Affordable Damp Surveys

The damage caused by damp is more than just damage to the decoration. It can lead to structural deterioration of plaster and brickwork and decay in structural timbers. It is important to get it right, first time without wasting your money and time. 

Inappropriate damp and timber treatments can be both expensive and potentially cause further damage to buildings, so it’s important to ensure you’re getting expert advice from a professional building preservation surveyor.

It is essential to have an independent specialist surveyor carry out an inspection, make a full diagnosis and provide an accurate survey report of findings and a set of recommendations to correct the defects. With over 30 years of experience working in the damp, timber and construction industry, we can certainly provide all such services with full confidence.  

We are based in Bristol and cover a wide area of up to a 50 mile radius. Arrangements can be made to travel further if required. Just speak to our team to arrange a damp survey or for further details regarding any of our services.
Damp and timber surveys
Damp and Timber Surveys and Reports
To inspect limited areas of concern regarding dampness and timber defects in a property and the appropriate method of treatment, we charge a minimum fee of £370.00 inclusive for each non-destructive damp or timber condition survey and written report within the Bristol and surrounding areas. Full property surveys are also available on request.

Quotations can be tailored to suit all sizes of buildings and locations regarding damp and timber surveys and reports .

Should a more invasive survey be required, (lifting of floorboards and plaster removal etc.) an additional cost will be confirmed prior to the survey. Written confirmation will be required from the owner which will be considered permission granted.

We can also attend your property to provide on-site consultation, advice and recommendations regarding dampness and timber defects as written reports are not always necessary. Costings for this service depending on the issue can be agreed on request. Minimum charge is £220.00 inclusive within the Bristol area.
